Above the leaden clouds, a dark shadow tore through the air, bringing with it a violent gust of wind and stopping beside Yun Heng.
In a flash, Li Guitang's tall figure became solid and his face was stern.
"How is it?" Yun Heng's voice showed no emotion.
"Tianxu, have you heard of it?" Li Guitang spoke in a deep voice.
Yun Heng was slightly stunned, then nodded slowly. "I have some impression of it. I've paid attention to it before. It seems to be a mutual aid organization for martial artists, somewhat similar to the early martial arts alliance, but more mysterious."
"The Bureau has been investigating them for twenty years."
Li Guitang's expression was serious, his eagle eyes captivating. "We've caught some small-time criminals... but members of this organization, once they can't stand the interrogation and try to reveal the truth, will inexplicably lose all relevant memories."
"We have spent countless manpower and resources, but we have never been able to dig out their roots."
At this point, his tone was filled with self-mockery, "I didn't expect that the leaders of the two major families in the north and south are both members of Tianxu."
Yun Heng finally turned around, his face filled with astonishment. "How did you find out their identities? And how can you be sure that their deaths are related to Tianxu?"
Li Guitang said, "The Xue family, affiliated with the Zhou family, lost a Grandmaster and two sixth-rank masters in a row. The only male left in the family is a young man who just reached the third rank."
"He was completely devastated and came to the investigation bureau to surrender."
"It seems like he wants to use us to avenge his family."
"What happened next?" Yun Heng asked.
Li Guitang pursed his lips tightly, gnashing his teeth. "He barely uttered a word when a burst of purple lightning exploded from his body. In the blink of an eye, he was gone, reduced to ashes."
"I was right next to him at the time and I tried to save him immediately, but I couldn't save him."
As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and showed it to Yun Heng.
A charred scar ran across the back of Li Guitang's hand, and there were even tiny purple arcs of electricity swirling and jumping on the surface of the wound.
Wu Xian's body has long been perfect and flawless, and the regeneration of broken limbs is just a matter of the blink of an eye.
How could this scar last forever?
Yun Heng took a deep breath, his expression extremely grim. "What did he say?"
Li Guitang's tone was extremely confused. "He said, 'Please help our Xue family. There's a case...'"
Yun Heng was speechless, "'Jian'? Which 'Jian'???"
Li Guitang shook his head, "I don't know."
The corner of Yun Heng's mouth twitched. "How did you come to this conclusion based on just this half sentence?"
"He handed over the jade token, a token of a Tianxu member. It's genuine," Li Guitang explained. "This proves his identity."
"After his death, the Bureau of Investigation's psychology experts analyzed the interrogation room footage, and they also sought assistance from the Public Security Bureau's criminal behavior experts."
"Combined with the Xue family's background, the relationships and behaviors of these dozens of deceased people, and so on, I don't quite understand."
"Anyway, the final conclusion is that there must have been an internal conflict within the Tianxu organization."
"The Zhou and Yang families are likely to have been purged."
"No wonder Zhou Qing and Yang Hanshan are making so much noise but doing so little," Yun Heng sneered. "It turns out they're just dishonest people."
"They got it easy!" Li Guitang's voice was cold and hard. "If the timing wasn't wrong, I would never have let this go so easily."
"I don't believe that these two old guys would be unaware that my own disciple has entered Tianxu."
Yun Heng shrank his neck imperceptibly and changed the subject calmly.
"Although there's no chaos in the country for the time being, since the battle has already been brought forward, there's no need to change the time."
"It doesn't matter whether you hit me early or late."
Li Guitang frowned, "Commander-in-Chief Yang Siwen is dead, what will happen to the battle command?"
Yun Heng waved his hand and regained some of his casualness.
"This battle mainly relies on Jiang Xue. There's nothing that requires precise command."
"Let Chief of Staff Liu Songming take over temporarily."
Li Guitang's frown deepened.
"Liu Songming has a grudge against Jiang Xue because of his grandson's matter."
"Will he wait for an opportunity to take revenge?"
"With us watching him, he can't make any waves." Yun Heng was full of confidence.
Li Guitang thought about it for a moment and felt that it made sense.
With Jiang Xue's current strength, if she was thrown into a pile of mid-level third-order abyss monsters, she could kill them all.
In addition, with the three martial immortals watching from the sky, Liu Songming really couldn't do anything.
He nodded gravely, then glanced at the empty sea of clouds, sensed it, and asked with a frown, "Where's Aleseni? Why isn't he sleeping in the clouds?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bright golden light suddenly lit up in the distant northern sky.
The light was not dazzling, but rather warm and heavy, like a rising sun that tore a hole in the thick leaden clouds.
Yun Heng smiled and nodded towards the golden light.
"Hey, it's coming."
......
The golden light came from far away at an incredible speed.
In just a few breaths, three majestic figures came flying along the golden bridge and stopped in front of the two men.
The leader was an unusually tall person, probably more than two meters and a half. He was wearing a gorgeous and complicated golden heavy armor, like a legendary giant.
Beside him, there was a man and a woman.
The man wore pure black heavy armor, while the woman wore holy silver armor.
These two men were equally tall and strong, but standing next to the golden giant, they appeared somewhat petite, like two children following behind an adult.
